D-Link DWL-650 Rev P1 does not have primary or secondary (station)
firmware images in the flash and consequently, these will need to be
loaded for the card initialization. See utils/hostap_fw_load for an
example script for doing this. This has been discussed in quite a bit of
detail on this mailing list before, so it should be quite easy to find
more information.
